Across Campus & Beyond Catawba.edu 34 catawba classnotes #gocatawba @catawbacollege catawba in memoriam 40 catawba.edu/social 2 From The President As the creator of Saturday Night Live, Lorne Michaels, once reputedly said, If you are the smartest person in the room then you are in the wrong room! Dear Catawba Family, One of the great benefits of a college experience is being surrounded – and challenged – by bright, creative, and interesting people of all backgrounds and experiences. Catawba’s Honors Program is one of our key vehicles for attracting students and faculty who seek these kinds of experiences. The impact on these individuals and the campus as a whole is significant. In the pages of this edition of CAMPUS, you will read about MindBodySoul: Catawba’s Campaign for Growth and the manifold ways in which we are seeking to enhance the College and what it can offer our students. The Honors Program is a vital element of that and I am thrilled to advise you that visionary and generous donors have created a $2 million endowment to sustain and expand it. These same generous and anonymous friends have already made a huge difference through a gift for the Honors program in our previous campaign. What kind of a difference? n Enrollment in Honors Courses has more than doubled in the past seven years from less than 100 to over 200; n Honors students are presenting their original research at regional and national conferences, winning awards and recognition for their work; n Honors students who travel domestically or internationally as part of their Honors courses have grown from fewer than 20 to nearly 70 in the past seven years; n Spaces dedicated to the Honors Program have been established in residence halls (Hurley and S-R) and academic areas (Hedrick); and n The number of students graduating with Honors has grown from three in 2013 to 10 in 2018. These numbers alone are compelling evidence of the impact a gift can have on students’ experiences at Catawba and how we can prepare them for a complex and dynamic world. Of course, the intangible opportunities are equally or more important in developing these young people to be leaders in their professions and communities. Attracting more of them starts with sharing their stories with friends, neighbors, and total strangers. Catawba’s growth – both in numbers and in quality of opportunities – depends on you! Many thanks to these generous supporters who have enabled Catawba to make such progress – I hope they will inspire others to find their own ways to grow and sustain the College for generations to come. Yours at Catawba, Brien Lewis, President #gocatawba Catawba.edu 3 Homecoming and Campaign Kick-Off Weekend 2018 saw a huge number of alumni, family members and friends back on campus this year.
